West Brompton
"West Brompton" lies between North End Road, home to a popular and vibrant street market selling fruit & veg at knock-down prices, and one of the finest cemeteries in the country, Brompton Cemetery to the East, home to thirteen holders of the Victoria Cross and the location for various films including Golden Eye and Johnny English.
The neighbourhood
The real benefits of this area are three fold; Fulham Broadway, with its shops, cinema, restaurants and tube (District Line, Zone 2) is the true centre of Fulham, and only 5 minutes walk. Although not as well-to-do as Parsons Green it is the liveliest and busiest part of Fulham.
The area
Transport links are great, there’s a Michelin star (at time of writing) restaurant, The Harwood Arms, and the massive Earls Court re-development is only a stones throw away so we could see healthy capital gains here as it unfolds over the years.
Though this area sometimes feels a little detached from the rest of Fulham and the SW6 post code, with wider roads it does lack the more family feel of some of the grids of roads elsewhere in Fulham.

Transport
Parsons Green District line tube station provides quick links to the rest of London and there are numerous bus routes running along New Kings Road and Fulham Road.
Leisure
The green is a great spot for a stroll or picnic in the sun, as is Eelbrook Common. The river and the Thames Path is not far away and if you’re into rock climbing, there’s a fantastic bouldering wall in the small business park near the tube station.
Schools
Lady Margaret girl’s school is a highly regarded school right on the green and the London Oratory boy’s school is also nearby. There are various independent schools nearby including Kensington Prep school.
Local amenities
A good mix of cafes, basrs and restaurants can be found on Parsons Green Lane and New Kings Road including the popular Bayley & Sage delicatessen and the famous (or infamous) White Horse pub at the northern end of the green. Brik’s home is also also here, right next to the White Horse pub.
